Some are more optimistic and enthusiastic about changes they envision for libraries; others set their eyes on publishers as almost villains in new marketplace emerging.Organized into broad groupings, chapters address stuff' in library; people who use and work in libraries; community; place; and leadership and vision. The editor expresses his own views in final chapter that warns us not to be too concerned with libraries in 2020 - what he considers short-term - but be focused on building capabilities to allow libraries to thrive in long-term. Assess which way winds are blowing - remain vigilant of new technologies that might be of use - and jump on bandwagon as cautious risk-takers. What follows are few of highlights from this slim volume.1. The Annoyed Librarian sees an extension of current trends: fewer books, music, and movies.
